COMHAIRLE CONTAE ÁTHA CLIATH THEAS
SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

MEETING OF LUCAN AREA COMMITTEE

Tuesday, February 23, 2016

MOTION NO. 19

MOTION: Councillor L. O'Toole

"That this Council asks the Chief Executive to consider the possibility of utilising council owned building that is currently unused on the Newcastle Road (next to Lucan Pitch and Putt club) as an interim solution to clubs that are currently hiring premises which are in horrendous conditions. (picture can be provided)."

REPORT:

"The Council purchased a site including a yard and building for the purpose of the South Dublin County Council Compulsory Purchase (Adamstown Road (R120) Improvement Scheme) Order, 2015, which was confirmed by An Bord Pleanala on 23rd December, 2015.  Funding has recently been confirmed from the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport.

The yard of the site will be fully utilised during the course of the works for the road improvement as a storage facility and compound for the Contractor.

The building has no facilities within, as there is no longer any power or foul sewarage availability.  Following the completion of works, a full assessment will have to be carried out on the building to assess it's viability for any future use.  Any works to remediate the building itself will entail a large financial commitment to change it's usage."
